I JUST WOULD LIKE TO SHARE THIS WONDERFUL STORY ON HOW I TURNED SUDDENLY TO ISLAM. I COME HERE IN UAE TO WORK. IT WAS A HARD AND TOUGH DECISION TO MAKE LEAVING MY FAMILY BEHIND. I HAVE 4 CHILDREN AND I DONT HAVE A HUSBAND. I HAVE TO SUPPORT ALL 4 ALONE. IT WAS ALSO A VERY HARD LIFE FOR ME HERE. THEN ONE DAY I STARTED TO OPEN THE INTERNET AND READ ABOUT ISLAM.THEN MY CURIOSITY OPENED MY EYES IN SEARCH FOR TRUTH. I STARTED ASKING MY BOSS QUESTION ABOUT ISLAM AND HOW TO BECOME A MUSLIM.THE JOURNEY STARTED FROM THAT. I READ THE INTERNET, READ BOOKS AND TALK TO PEOPLE BUT THE GREATEST INSTRUMENT WAS MY BOSS WHO IS SEATING CLOSE TO ME EVERYDAY GUIDING ME AND TELLING ME ALL THE INFORMATION I NEED TO LEAD ME TO ISLAM...NO PRESSURE AT LL BUT I GREATELY FOUND MYSELF IN GREAT HUNGER FOR INFORMATION...SLOWLY, THE HUNGER TURNED TO LIKING AND EVENTUALLY LOVING ISLAM.AFTER A MONTH, I LEFT FOR DUBAI FOR A 4 DAY TRAINING. AFTER THE LAST DAY, I HAD A VERY GOOD DREAM. A SMALL GIRL IN A VERY NICE GARDEN IS CALLING ME AISHAH. AFTER THE TRAINING, I WENT HOME AND ASK MY BOSS TO TAKE ME TO THE MASJID AND BRING ME TO ISLAM.FEB 8 I EMBRACED ISLAM AND NOW ITS BEEN A MONTH AND I GROW AND LOVE ALLAH SO MUCH. MAY THIS STORY ENLIGHTEN OTHERS AS WELL.LIFE IS TOTALLY DIFFERENT NOW. MORE PEACE AND HAPINESS AND CONTENT IN MY HEART.

ALHAMDULILLAH.

I was born Muslim. I was lost for long time in the west. Doing every think that young a teenager likes to do. I couldn't picture myself not listen to or plying music. I was wild. Allahmduallah. Many things happened that changed my life so quickly.

I realized that I am a Muslim. I turned to my believe which gave that comfort and the meaning of life. I feel so calm and peaceful which lead me to do better in my schooling and in my life.

Islam Is the solution for any problem that we face in life. Allahmduallah I am a Muslim.
